Video of final Set: The video looks a lot easier than it felt. My 3rd set felt very fast, whereas the final set felt like a pure grind; despite how it looks on the video. I'm on the fence whether to increment again, or proceed to 4x4. I will let tomorrows bench session dictate. If I fail bench then I will proceed to 4x4 to keep both the lifts inline, if bench is easy then I'll increment again. ps. This is a pb for 5x5, previous was 195. | ||

Strong stuff mate! Thanks mate! Just fatigue, first thing to go with me is the speed when I'm fatigued... so it made the lifts much harder from the first set to the last, although I'm sure everyone is affected by this! | ||

we ride at dawn Member 4363, 1442 posts SQ 310, BP 250, DL 320880.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | Forgot to mention, if anybody suffers from inner or outer shinsplints/soreness, I can't express enough just how much a tight pair of socks can help. Literally pain free. I wasn't exactly in agony with it before, but no pain is better than some pain... | ||

tabbouleh and fattoush salads were very refreshing Member 267, 8548 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 250635.0 kgs @ 90kgs Eq | That's a lot of weight to be doing 5x5 with. Very impressive. | ||

I remember only just squeezing out 2x2 at 230 then did a pretty fast 255 in comp. But, I would be very surprised if it was anything less than 230 at the minute. With this system, I'll be doing 3's in the near future so will set a pb then! | ||

 Member 5141, 4207 posts SQ 300, BP 180, DL 350830.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq | Always a pleasure to watch you lift, picture perfect form, though the speed in squats is noticeably slower than the last video I saw of you doing a double, entirely understandable though given that you were rocking 25 reps at over 200kg, hell of an achievement. Good luck with getting the new deadlift form locked in, I remember the hassle I had getting my 'new' squat form to be second nature. | ||

My 3rd set was much quicker than the one in the video, but my speed over reps as never been good, don't know if strength endurance and speed give in empathy with the other... It seems so. One way to be sure, I'll do some 100m sprints at the end of my 5x5 phase, then the same after my 1x1 phase and see if there's a difference in the average. Thanks again for watching mate | ||
